Dear Families,

Thank you so much for your generous support. We are so close to reaching our Fun Run goal! You have one more week to collect donations, so keep the momentum going!

When our students hit the target, they'll be treated to a very special surprise: Ms. Meg gets silly stringed right after the Bubble Show on June 1st! Ten lucky students will be randomly selected to do the honors — so every donation brings us one step closer to this epic moment! 💪

📋 A Few Important Reminders:

Dress for Outdoor Fun! Please make sure your child comes dressed appropriately to play outside. Our playground is full sun, so we strongly encourage applying sunscreen before leaving home, even a few minutes of exposure can cause a sunburn. (Just ask Ms. Meg, who turns into a lobster in seconds! 🦞)

Last Day of School Update: Due to the number of snow days this year, the last day of school has been pushed to June 23rd. Bus routes will run as normal. All of transportation (Busses and vans) are aware and will be following their regular pickup schedules.

Wishing everyone a fantastic Memorial Day weekend! 🇺🇸 We will see our AM session back on Tuesday and our PM session on Wednesday. Enjoy the long weekend, you all deserve it!
